At Apple, Hispanic workers make up 11% of the company's US workforce, while Asian workers account for 15%. Black employees make up 7%, and bi-racial employees comprise 2%.

Those numbers may not look diverse, but Hispanics only make up 4% of employees at Facebook. The case is the same at Yahoo and LinkedIn. At Google, only 3% of US employees are Hispanic.

What's more: Across Facebook, Yahoo, LinkedIn, and Google, black workers only make up 2% of the US employees. When it comes to both the Hispanic and black communities, Apple's statistics more than double those of other tech companies.

These companies still have a lot of work to do in order to create a truly diverse industry, but the fact that companies are acknowledging their ethnical makeup is a step in the right direction.
